Local Horse Notes.

Miss Thompson, by Shelby Chief second,
dam by Erickson, belonging TO T. b. Marrett,
dropped a bay horse colt on the 9Th, by Nut
wood Mambrino. Mr. Marrett has concluded
not to breed Pioneer Kate this season for the
reason that she is showing SO much speed.
He has concluded to train and speed her, and
breed her next year to Nutwood Mambrino.
Lord Nelson, 2:26A, is reported to be in
splendid condition for trotting. He it in
perfect health, and never was looking, act
ing or moving as square and smooth as at
present. The indications are that he will
trot very fast the present season. He is at

F. G. Buford, proprietor of Rockdale stock
farm. of bufords, Tenn, has for sale at the
State Fair grounds some of the best trotters
and PAGERS ever brought to the state, and
persons desiring to purchase would do well
to examine them.
Porter Martin lost on the Sd inst his
well known stallion, Archer Almont, by Al

Winnie, by Planet and who as a four-year-
cid trotted some very stubborn races last

probably be withdrawn from the turf and
placed in the stud. Gov. Stanford thinks
more of him than of any horse ever bred at
Palo Alto.

the topmost round, and still greater
things were expected of him. No one
expected more of him than Commodore
kittson, who regarded him as the best
long distance horse in the country. He
subsequently won the Emporium, the
1roQuois stakes, the great Metropoli-
tan handicap and the Coney Island
cup. This year, all of sudden,
he has developed a peculiar kind
of lameness. 1t manifeSts itself spas
medically. He still shows wonderfully
great speed in his trials, and yet every
little while when he seems all right
certain lameness appears to come upon
him. 1t does not appear to be very
serious lameness, nor is it very certain
precisely where the lameness is located.
1t is the intention to run him this sum-
mer, probably at the Suburban. If he
can be cured of this lameneSs he can be
looked upon with certainty to defeat
anything now on the turf for distance,
and it is believed that he can be.
